Hi Elizabeth,
Great idea for a product, although ladies fashion is definitely out of my expertise.
One thing I have noted about your project is that it is ranked 87th by popularity within the Fashion category. This is despite being 224% funded with more than 100 backers. Having a quick scan of the 86 project ahead of yours, there are many with less money raised and less % of goal reached.
I would be taking a look at these projects to see what they are doing to earn the popularity listing above yours.
I know the Kickstarter algorithm is a bit of a mystery, however I did hear of one successful creator's strategy to get backers engaging in the campaign by commenting. As you only have two comments, perhaps ask your backers to engage by providing comments, such as, what do they plan to pair the dickey up with? (that phrase sounds strange just writing it).
Just an idea.
I'd love to hear some feedback from the experts as to why one project features higher in the popularity listing than others.
Perhaps, a good question for "Ask Sal"?
